On to the next topic BRUSHES! I'm going to show very reasonable and very functional brushes you can get and how to clean them! *click on red to view products!

These are going to be the basic brushes every diva should have in there everyday makeup kit!

Foundation Brush: Use this brush to apply foundation, to avoid streaking use a criss cross pattern when applying, you should not use your hands this will spread dirt and bacteria. EW!

Concealer Brush: Use this brush to apply concealer under eyes, on the sides of your nose and around your mouth plus any blemishes you want to hide, remember to blend well!

Powder Brush: Use this brush to evenly spread powder all over to keep you dry all day!

Angled Contour Face Brush- Use this brush to apply your blush to your cheek bones.

Eyeshadow Brush- Use this brush to spread eye shadow over the entire eye

Round Eyeshadow Brush- Use this brush in crease of eye to create a more dramatic look

Blending Brush- Blend the colors on your eyes for a softer look!

Angled Contour shadow Brush- This brush is Multi-functional! You can use it in your crease, to apply liner or even to fill in your eye brows!

If your addicted to gel liners as much as i am than this eyeliner brush works best!

Now don't forget to keep it all together in a makeup case to keep it away from dust and dirt!

Now that you know the functions of each brush, I'm going to give you advice on how to clean them! cleaning your brushes regularly is very important, it will keep bacteria from forming and keep your face from breaking out. When is the last time you cleaned your brushes?

There are tons of different brush cleaners that will get the job done, but for a cheap and easy way follow these steps!

Take a plate and place some dawn antibacterial dish soap and a drop of olive oil! (yes olive oil it will keep your brushes soft) dip in the mixture than wipe on the palm of your hand until all the dirt is gone, repeat for each brush. than rinse under cold water and pat dry with a paper towel. Let brushes dry over night either upside down using brush protectors or on there sides! when you wake up in the morning you will have squeaky clean brushes!

I hope I was able to help some of you with your brush questions! Don't forget to leave a comment with your e-mail address to be entered in this weeks contest! some lucky winners will be scoring some of these brushes!
